Hello to everyone reading this blog. My name is Erica M. and I'm majoring in Multimedia design and development. Before I came to Devry I was a theater major. I received a minor in theater and decided to pursue it a little further. It has always been my dream to be a performer on Broadway or in a huge blockbuster directed my James Cameron. Although, theatre was and still is my passion, I decided that I needed a degree. I wanted to do something still related to the arts so I chose Multimedia Design. I loved using my imagination to come up with something no one has ever thought of. I thought multimedia and design was going to be easy; I was wrong. I didn't realize how a line or a shape could make or break your piece, or what color and font you use could change your piece from what you had picture it to be. Professor Wathen has made me appreciate art a lot more than I did before. I have new respect for those who take the time to accent a line or blend a color with another. I want to be just as great, if not greater. I hope to learn about all the adobe programs and how to use them. I also plan to take some drawing classes to help with my designs. I'm Looking forward to the program as well as meeting new people!
